I love how the simple old FX guns just keep shooting well, and looking good while they do it!
This old Smooth Twist, un regulated Royale 400 with its clunky old steel bottle will average half inch 50m groups all day, everyday.
After a new pressure gauge, and replacing a few seals I thought I'd put it over the chrony.
Averaging 890 fps with 18gn JSB's, ES of 18 and SD of 3.9, I'm happy with that for an unregulated gun.

Not many free spots left on the target after sighting in some thermal scoped rimfires, but you can see the Royale groups marked.
Some good and some average groups there, but overall I'm happy with that for a hunter at 50m.
Apologies for the messy workspace, but it's what happens when you squeeze play in between work I guess.

There's been a lot of postings gong around about the Taipans lately so I thought I would throw in mine. The targets are 5 shot groups each of various slugs for the 700mm and both slugs and pellets for the 550mm. Both guns are about a year old so they are in the "newest group except for the new ADF versions. The targets are 30 yards away and I was on my bench with an Accu-tac bipod on the front and my sand bag on the back. 12mph wind today but I have some enclosure to take it out somewhat. No change in tune on either gun, just a full tank of air (250bar). The shot groups should be pretty steady although I may have a bit of movement on a couple, but I left them in. I did clean the barrels before the shooting. I hope this helps with some pellet slug choices based off my guns.

Selling my TX 200 HC .22 it’s just not being shot and can’t stand to just see it wasted sitting in my gun safe. It comes as pictured gun shoots and looks perfect minus 1-2 small marks, has around 200 pellets through it. I will throw in 2 tins of pellets with sale. Price includes shipping to CONUS my preferred payment is PayPal GS I will eat the fee. I know I hate PayPal too. I know I don’t have but 1 feedback but I have tons on eBay and Bladeform if that makes you feel better about it. Asking $575

you know i bought this brand new its 3 months old been back 4 times just shot 20 rounds on the 21
clunk psssst locked trigger and dumper every ounce of air out the barrel to the point it had frost on the gun.
called the dealer showed him my frosty ghost he was speechless, felt horrible and said just ship it back for a full refund.
wow he said, I've never had such a patient customer, you never complained i said nope time will tell.
I'm looking at a drs tactical pro 600mm 25 Cal which he said is not available as of right now
he also said you may want to wait for the leopard its due about the same time and will have them.
so now i have some time to think, this was more of a let down more than anything.
its also the only 22 i have all the rest are 25.

Just picked up this Crosman 760 ”Power Master”. It has a April 1968 date. I shot my cousins every summer back in the late 60’s. My wife also said she had the same gun when she was a girl as soon as she saw it. It shoots strong at over 500 fps with eight pumps. I bought it as non working but I guess the guy didn’t know how it operated because it works perfectly. Cleaned right up. All original. Hardly used in nearly 60 years. Love the “tootsie roll” cocking forearm. It is fun to have an American made pump bb rifle to shoot. Brings back very good memories. Anyone else have one?

Sometimes we get such groups that we ourselves become amazed.

Following video is showing a group of 8 shots at around 940 fps with 18.13 grain JSB pellets at 70 yards distance.

This is the same RAW that had come with a bad barrel and I had installed BSA barrel in it.

It is shot by the owner. I have asked him to shoot again at leat 3 or 4 groups at same distance to get average size of group.

Hi All,

I shoot in my back yard mostly at targets, from a bag rest at a range of 65 to 70 feet. Using a break barrel that cost under $200 and came with a 4x32 scope. Sometimes I do shoot at a pest or two. Now that I have retired, I find myself using it more but having trouble seeing the target, so I put the scope on. Now I am finding that I have to remove my eyeglasses to get a good sight picture, (both eyes open) Not sure what type of scope to look for but would like more magnification. Would like to keep the price low, (to keep wife happy) and my wallet. I know that will limit my options, but all suggestions will be greatly appreciated Thanks.

I just ordered some targets from them. They arrived fast, and they kept me informed along the way.

For sale is this Scott 30 minute tank with new 300 DIN flow restricted valve and 20" micro bore fill hose. I lucked into several of these tanks that were obviously surplus units (your tax dollars at work). I removed the Scott valve and replaced it with a new fill assembly with a male foster fitting on the tank and fill hose with female fosters on each end and a strain relief the whole length. This tank makes a great compromise between the large 60 minute tanks and the small 90 cu in bottles. This tank is dated 09/07 and therefore past it's "15 year service life". Due to it's age , no commercial business will fill it. You must have your own compressor that is capable of filling a bottle of this size. Use this at your own risk and assume responsibility . I have aired this tank and checked for function , and it is ready to go. Selling for $180 including tracked and insured shipping to the conus. To comply with DOT rules , the tank will be shipped empty . Not interested in trades or offers at this time . Please deal by PM . Thanks for looking. Herb...................PS, this is the last one I have for sale.

After sitting for 6 months my Impact M3 developed a massive leak while trying to fill with air it just rushes back out from around the trigger?!?! Have had it completely apart twice including the regulator and can find no O ring that doesn't appear to be pristine......any thoughts?

Utah airgun sent me a newest model from Europe complete with all the fixes from first run of M4 and it works amazing. The current tune will shoot 10gr fx pellets amazing in .177 and switch to the .22 same tune shoots the 18gr jsb amazing just a couple clicks on the scope and your good.

I’ve had my Gk1 four days and now it won’t take air, it had been doing really well. Yesterday I shot twelve rounds at full power without issue, I had 7 mpa of air left, when I got home I noticed the air was gone. I then tried to refill the pistol and it wont take air. I contacted New England Air Gun, they had me turn the power setting all the way off to reset the pistol but it still wouldn’t refill. Anyone else had this issue?

Bought off a forum member, but I never got to use it. Selling for what I paid for it - $200 shipped CONUS.

Thank you.

Need help here peeps. I followed all the instructions. Used distilled water for the coolant. The unit is running off AC 110 which is set properly on the unit. I have the max pressure and requested pressure both set for 300 bar. It was working great for the first 4 hours but after it hit 2000psi it started randomly shutting off the pump. The unit would still have power and the fan would be running but the start button wouldn’t be illuminated green and the off button would be on. If I hit the start button it will start right back up but then it turns off again within 3-15 minutes. It’s not from overheating either because I babysat it today after leaving it shut off for 24 hours and it turned itself off within 5 minutes.

I sent a message to the manufacturer because I bought it direct but I am hoping that I am just doing something wrong. I read all the directions though and I can’t find anything else to do. Also to note. After a couple shutoffs last night I tried giving the grease thing a half turn but that didn’t help either. As always, help is greatly appreciated!

So I derailed the thread about an FWB 65 with a brief discussion on other target pistols. Thought I'd give this it's own thread. I'm fascinated with the accuracy of the 10 meter pistols (and those that wield them as intended, off-hand), I recently got a great deal on an FWB P8x. Already had the Baikal. And a Crosman 1701P. All are great in my short (15 ft) garage range, wanted to try a true 10 meter test so took my two most accurate outside for a death match ;-). To my eye (too lazy to measure ctc and make it scientific) the P8x wins by a small margin. Based on engineering quality and fit, finish, and trigger, I thought the P8x would be a runaway winner but not so...Cheers! Rick

I'm getting a war warp. Wondering if there's anyone with parts for sale. Not sure what I need yet. Spare magazine. .30 conversion kit. Etc

I rotate and shoot a stable of pumpers and springers. However, I don't track shot count. Is there an easy way to determine when lubrication and other maintenance are required? Should I track the shots taken on each, use a calendar, or do both, or is there another way? I have Daisy BB guns, several pumpers, and several break-barrel springers. Thanks in advance for any replies.

I have a .22 Gamo magnum, .22 pcp avenger and .22 impaxt M4. I want to step up to a .30 pcp. If I buy an fx barell kit, mag, and moderator I am looking at over $600. Should I buy that or get a cheper .30 like a hastan blitz for $799.

Young buck that recently shed his antlers has a broken right leg. May have been hit bt an auto.

Thought I'd share my notes...

I'm in the honeymoon period with the .22 caliber HM1000x I got just before winter hit and we are just getting to know each other.

The HM1000x was too much gun to be shooting indoors so today's calm, 50 F weather had me at the shooting bench for the first time in 3 months.

During the initial acceptance testing the PCP preformed well averaging 955 fps for 51.5 fpe with JSB Monster Redesigned pellets.

Ergonomically I found the grip to be too small for my hand, the stock too short and the trigger too light.

I swapped the grip for a larger commercial one which will do until I can make a custom one.

The spacer I made (picture attached) gives me a 13.5 to 15 inch adjustment range for the LOP.

The trigger settled in nicely. I suspect that grease on the trigger needed to be displaced (that's what it felt like was happening) because after a bit of use, the 1st stage smoothed out and the distinction between the 1st and 2nd stages became much clearer. The trigger was factory set at 3.5 ounces which I increased to 6.5 ounces.

I really think that RAW should consider shipping the HM1000x with the trigger set a bit heavier and let the customer adjust it down if they prefer. I'm used to the light triggers on my 10 meter target guns but not everyone can shoot a 3.5 ounce trigger safety.

I'm getting 36 shots from a 230 bar fill then the HM1000x falls off the regulator at 150 bar. I'm considering swapping the 480 cc bottle with the 700 cc bottle from my Panthera to increase the shot count a bit.

Hope this is of interest.
Cheers!
